"Casa Alegre is awesome! It was the perfect place to stay, you are t in the touristy town but a great place to relax. The beach was awesome and the people in the area were friendly and welcoming. The property management team addressed any concerns quickly! When we visit Costa Rica again we will be back at Casa Alegre"

"The location on the black sand beach is beautiful. Rooms are large and the bed and bed shots are so very confortable."

"I’m not sure I can say enough good things about this magical place. The cabin was perfectly clean and had absolutely everything one could hope for. Everything was as depicted in the pictures and just a true pleasure of a space. The AC in the bedrooms was a huge plus for travelers coming from cold climates. The kitchen and its amenities were a huge class as well, and it had every convenience who could hope for, for easy cooking. The location is truly beautiful. It really is right in the beach where you have access to both the rocky landscape and sandy openings for wake boarding or surfing. If you keep your eyes open you will see the entire ecosystem of natural wonders. From hummingbirds and the birds to iguanas and baby sea turtles, to colorful tropical fish in the tide pools that form the tide is out, to hermit, crabs, and live sand dollars, the exploration right out the door is endless. As a mother traveling solo with her daughter, we both felt very safe at this beautiful place, and my heart already earns to return.The hosts were exceptionally responsive and wonderfully kind, and we feel both lucky and grateful for them to have opened this cabin up. You can simply feel that the cabinet is full of care, love and kindness."

"I loved the short walk to the beach. The beach was beautiful and hardly anyone was on the beach. Also saw some monkeys in the trees out back of the property. The food was good, we only ate there twice. We had several drinks each night at the bar. Loved the location being so close to several sodas. Road to the lodge was rough but all the roads were pretty rough. Make sure if you book this through Expedia they have your flight landing in Liberia not San Jose, we lost two days due to SJO being our airport. It doesn't seem far away but with traffic the way back took us 7 hours. So grateful to the staff and owner of Gucamaya Lodge, you helped us so much and we enjoyed your company. Can't wait to return one day!"

"What an incredible view & tranquil place. We will be back!"

"This place was the closest thing to paradise that my family has ever been to. Every amenity was there, the instructions were very clear, and the location was better than we could have imagined."

"Great atmosphere and helpful staff!"

"The rooms were very comfortable (best sleep we had on our trip to Costa Rica) and we loved the pool, the beach, the sunsets, and the star gazing at night. We were there with our family. It is a bit remote so good idea to bring games and snacks if traveling with kids. The restaurant on the premise is expensive but serves creative dishes by a Michelin star chef using local ingredients."

"Our stay was nothing short of amazing! The house looked even better than the photos and quickly became one of our favorite parts of the trip. We loved how quiet and authentic the area felt but still within a short drive to other beaches and towns (would recommend renting a car). We were sad to leave but would love to come back to the same house again. Could not recommend enough!"
